Thank you! I truly appreciate it. Hopefully it helped! And ironically I just uploaded another Alitma how-to a few minutes ago lol.

I appreciate the comment!

👍👍👍

Glad it helped 🙏

Good luck! Let us know 👍

i dont mean to be so offtopic but does any of you know of a trick to get back into an Instagram account?? I was stupid lost my password. I love any tricks you can offer me.

@Mordechai Rogelio instablaster ;)

@Musa Rhett Thanks so much for your reply. I found the site on google and Im in the hacking process atm. Seems to take quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.

@Musa Rhett It did the trick and I now got access to my account again. Im so happy! Thanks so much you saved my ass!

Yay! More videos! ❤️

Appreciate the comment 👊

Awesome man! Definitely glad it helped!

🤙🤙🤙

Thank you! I appreciate it!

Brian Woodard thanks a lot man! I appreciate it! I definitely with have more Altima content in the future! 👊

I have a 2015 too. They are trying to charge me damn near 500 for a tune up!!!! Imma go ahead and rent tools from autozone and go for it. Pray! 😁

Strange Magick thats ridiculous. Good luck!

@@TheOriginalBeeCee Thanks! 😊

@@strangemagick8903 500 just for spark plugs replacement?

thanks man! But definitely, once plugs have been in there for a while they start really making a home in there lol

@@TheOriginalBeeCee yea I know what you mean!

🙏🙏🙏🙏

Awesome! 🙏👍

Thank you! Definitely appreciate the comment 🤙

Thank you! 🙏

I definitely appreciate it 🙏🙏

Good, im glad it helped! Good luck with the replacement!

Hello did you ever change you're spark plugs ? Can you list which ones you bought , I have a 2015 nissan Altima 2.5 S and I would like to know so I can do it my self lol thank you

Couldn’t hurt!

Hahahaha

Hey no problem man, its a Torque Wrench. Its meant to only turn bolts to a certain specific set pound setting (they come in inch pounds and foot pounds). Really, there are a wide variety of torque wrenches. In my opinion having both an inch pound and a foot pound torque wrench are essential. I would suggest getting yourself like a nice 1/2 drive foot pound wrench, and like a nice 3/8 drive inch pound wrench. Although, part stores like Autozone and Advanced do rent these torque wrenches out if need be! Might be worth renting one first to get some experience with one, and see what you like and don’t like with the different options of torque wrenches available.

Its actually just a folding key set, kinda like a pocket knife...but it has multiple different sizes you can fold in/out. You might want to consider a set of hex sockets that you can use with a socket wrench. So you can get like a 3/8 set, and just utilize it with your 3/8 socket wrench.

henry rodriguez hey whats up man. I would consider it depending on the mileage of the car. The spark plug replacement interval outlined in the Maintenance Guide is @ 105K. So if the car has 100K plus, I would consider doing it!

Wow that’s insane!

Dealers are such thieves!

They replace coil packs usually with plugs at the steelership and oem coil packs are not cheap!

Appreciate the comment!

🙏🙏🙏🙏

Its actually not lol. Thats the 2nd one i bought. Both broke for absolutely no reason. Stay away from craftsman torque wrenches

If anti-seize was in there, it would’ve been there from the factory doesn’t need it

Maybe they didn’t reset the code? But what was the specific code? If it was a cylinder misfire, could also potentially be the ignition coil.

Naaa not really necessary. But definitely recommended and “best practice”.

I agree that’s definitely best practice. I actually had to go back and watch this to realize I did it that way. That’s typically what I usually do though, idk why I didn’t do that in this video...maybe was being lazy with camera work or something lol. Not the end of the world though.

Yup

@@TheOriginalBeeCee that’s fine there is nothing wrong with having more than one plug out 😊

Smart I never thought of that

Trust that the little debris will get pulverized on the first stroke of the piston😅😂

I got quite a few Altima videos on the channel to help you out with that!

Appreciate it!!

Hey how are you, sorry I’m just now seeing this comment. KZfaq doesn’t always send notifications for every comment. But it’s just anti-seeze, you can get it at Walmart or any Auto Parts store!

Don't use it, unnecessary

Nope doesnt matter at all! You could do them in whatever order.

I use: www.coulterpartscenter.com/ ..for OEM Nissan needs.

I would strongly suggest going back over all your work. Sounds like a coil harness is either unplugged, or not plugged in all the way tight. If it didn’t start directly after you finished this job, it has to be something simple you missed/hit/forgot, etc.

Check the fuel injector.

I hope so too....good luck 🙏

The Nissan Service & Maintenance guide that comes with the car recommends first spark plug replacement @ 105K.

@@TheOriginalBeeCee thank you. I'm at 88k miles now

I prefer utilizing OEM parts typically, as I used the OEM plugs in this video.

Since plugs are not something you do that often, I would just spend the extra money and go with the OEM. You literally will save a few bucks by going aftermarket and I have, but it's usually not worth the savings (literally, dollars). The only time I would say to use cheaper aftermarket plugs is if the car is messed up and burns a lot of oil to a point where you're changing plugs every year or every other year, then yes get the cheap plugs because you're going to be throwing them away quite often, but only in that instance. But even then so, you're talking about maybe saving maybe $20-$30 per year if you had to change your plugs every year going with aftermarket versus OEM. (In my case with one car, it was cheaper to put a 1/2 quart of oil in every month and replace the plugs every 18 months than have the rings redone).

You just need to pull up on it. Give a nice tug should pop off.

Thats a pretty subjective question to be honest. There are multiple things that could cause that symptom at idle. The spark plugs/a misfire could definitely create that symptom at idle, but it’s not a guarantee that is your problem. If the plugs have never been replaced, or haven’t been replaced in a while….you can replace them, since they aren’t that hard to do and they need to be done anyway at that point. But typically plugs have to be pretty bad off to really create a bad idle. Might be worth it to have it properly diagnosed. Is check engine light or anything on?

@@TheOriginalBeeCee yes will go to autozone in the week. Thank you

Yes, the torque spec is also 14lbs for your 2018!

Thank you!

I would do it when engine is cold as possible, so not running for a few hours at least.

Not sure I’m following..

Any autoparts store carries gap tool!

Thank you 🙏

Honestly don’t remember, I have both lol. Really doesn’t matter though, you would be fine with either, doesn’t matter either way.

I would double check them to ensure the gap is on point before installing.

I appreciate it!

Yeaaaaaaaa lol. Those plugs have over double them mileage they should. I would 100 percent replace the plugs at the very least.

@@TheOriginalBeeCee thanks for the reply to me also am trying to do the spur plugs but my question is that specific tools with a pound is that necessary to tighten up or not when u put all back together am Trying to do it myself and save some money

@@agimqerimi2564 its ideal to use one as they don’t make them for no reason….but if you’re careful, you can get away without using one just snugging it

I believe its a 18 inch

Nice! Good luck with the job 🤙

@@TheOriginalBeeCee I know my way around vehicles but man I hope my plugs arent so tight coming out.

@@HEATRACER24 yea man hopefully not!

@@TheOriginalBeeCee Update: #2 plug tube was filled with oil so now I have to wait for amazon to get me a new valve cover and gasket because the seals for the tubes arent replaceable. What a kick in the balls!

@@TheOriginalBeeCee Parts stores dont carry the valve cover.

Thats what they make torque wrenches for!

If you’re having a misfire (check engine light for misfire), start with all the plugs. Once you know plugs are 100 percent, clear the codes. If you get a misfire code again, an easy way to determine a bad coil would be swapping it for a known good one. So for example, if you’re getting a P0301 (1st cylinder misfire), you would swap the coil with the second cylinder. Clear codes, then if you get a P0302…which would be a misfire for the second cylinder, you know the coil is bad because you now have the misfire on the second cylinder where you swapped the questionable coil into.

@@TheOriginalBeeCee great thank you

Thank you! I appreciate that. Car is running good though, actually @ 135K now! But staying on top of the fluid is my best suggestion in getting the most life out of the trans!

thanks, ;-)

Mine blew at 80k

@@usaisgood8433 dam bro, did you have it replaced? or rebuilt? and how much $, thanks for the reply!

oh snap, my comment from 7 months ago says i had 78k miles on my CVT, i now have 96k, i drive for a living, but holy crap,, that's like 2500 miles a month! CVT still working though, was thinking about replacing the oil again, since i didnt use Nissan oil when i did it last year, shhhhhh, dont tell anyone im ruining a nice car, lol, its mine, im the mechanic and its paid for ;-) best car ever, really like it a bunch.. . . thanks for the videos, keep them coming as its obvious ill need them, oh yea I also had to replace the brakes again since June of last year when i bought new rotors too. take care... . ..

🙏🙏🙏

Hey what’s going on man. It’s recommended to do them every 105K by Nissan. So 105k, 210k, 315k, etc. etc. You can verify this with Nissan’s Service & Maintenance Guide for this car: www.nissanusa.com/content/dam/Nissan/us/manuals-and-guides/shared/2014/2014-nissan-service-maintenance-guide.pdf

@@TheOriginalBeeCee thanks also do you know why the say it get great gas mileage but I can’t get over 17.5 my silverado got 19 and it had twice the pristons lol 😂

@@gettothechase636 lol sheeesh man thats bad lol. Hard to say, are you driving it like an “altima driver”? 😂😂

Thank you! The OEM plugs are Denso FXE20HE11C.

Everything you need is outlined in the video by both me mentioning it & text in bubbles

The bolts retaining the cover are stripped?

@@TheOriginalBeeCee yes the hex screws . Thank you for replying and I have engine oil leaking in one of the spark plugs only

@@josuesolis1382 my best suggestion would be sacrificing a socket. Find the closest socket that basically fits over it, and hammer it on. Then you can back it off. You might even be able to get the socket back off. I just had to do that with a torx head bolt actually. The torx pattern in the center of the bolt was rusted/stripped out…..so I hammered on a socket and was actually able to remove it.

I agree! I really should of blown it out before, i just didn’t have air at the time. But no dirt got in there….most of that dirt was caked on.

The NGK’s are “OEM grade”. Altima’s use to come stock with NGK’s. But they now come with Denso OE plugs. Nothing wrong with utilizing NGK’s tho, they are good plugs.

I’m not sure the reason, but it has been like that forever. They do get super corrosive.

You’re right, as far as most manufacturers stating not to use anti-seize. Although, this is a more recent revelation, and many mechanics still use it, and I’ve personally done it on countless vehicles for over 15+ years with 0 issues. For me, this article pretty much sums it up: agradetools.com/be-confident-with-anti-seize-how-to-use-the-right-anti-seize-like-a-boss/ ..Basically as the article is stating, if you have a bunch of people overtightening their lubricated spark plugs from inexperience, and stripping out their engine heads....the manufacturer could be held liable. By telling you not to use anti-seize they reduce their liability and wouldn’t be held responsible for you over tightening their plugs. I think experience is a huge factor with the use of anti-seize, and obviously if it’s going to be used, moderation is the key to success for its use. Less is more. In hindsight......considering a lot of people watching this probably don’t have that experience with plugs/anti-seize...it’s probably best I shouldn’t include that in the video, or at least share a disclaimer that anymore plug companies don’t suggest it use. Its more or less habitual for me at this point, and in most cases I’m sure you could get away without using it, but for certain applications I still think it serves a purpose when used modestly.

Common sense dictates it's a good idea to use anti sieze, yeah it affects the torque setting, so use your head and just snug them down. I've done hundreds, never a problem. The spark plug manufacturer has his own interests in mind, and it has nothing to do with you pulling some aluminum threads out of the head.

@@kccodex8931 💯🙏

🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

You can get away with other plugs of course, but personally, regardless of the vehicle….i like to utilize the OEM plugs when replacing.

@@TheOriginalBeeCee Just get mine replaced today. I realized the original plugs from the engine was from Denso as well. So the new one I bought, though not from Nissan, but was exactly the same from the OEM. The part code was Denso: FXE20HE11C or Just Denso 3490. The OEM I ment in the previous comment was the "Nissan OEM". Those were like $25. The denso one was only $10-12. Thank you again.

Osunaa Tube you can get away without doing it, although they don’t make torque specs for no reason...and personally I think torque specs add some extra piece of mind.

Mon legaspi hey whats up man! But yup these are the original OEM spark plugs! I ordered them directly from Nissan.

@@TheOriginalBeeCee was there any loss in performance before replacing spark plugs in your Altima? Or did you do it just because of the mileage?

Cedric Miller hey whats up man. I didn’t have any loss in performance, I just did it because of the mileage. I do feel like it might start a hair cleaner since the replacement though.

@@TheOriginalBeeCee nothing much man just considering changing mine since im at 100,000 miles now and ok basically you mean you still feel a slight better startup even tho the performance was never lost

Cedric Miller yup exactly. I would suggest doing it since you’re at 100K.

Its beyond simple…..but if you need to see it check out the pinned comment, its outlined in my new video.

If you still have the Nissan “service and maintenance guide” that came with the car, it pretty much has everything outlined in there as to when things should be check/done. Spark plugs in particular are recommended to be replaced @ 105K. But some other things to ensure are good are things like your air filter, fluids..oil, CVT fluid, coolant, etc.

A Carmona thank you I appreciate it! But no I’ve never experienced that with this car. Unfortunately to me it almost sounds like you might have a potential CVT issue, but I definitely hope I’m wrong lol.

Yeah mine had this same issue. Even stalled on the freeway . Thank god I was close to an exit. But it definitely was the transmission. Had to replace it at 60k.

Yea, not the easiest plug extraction ever. Time might have just gotten the best of them considering they were the original OEM plugs. Funny, because most of these new plugs of this style have that "anti-seize" plating on them for easier extraction (& aren't really suppose to need ant-seize), but goes to show they can be stubborn just like a traditional style plug. As far as the music, I answered this in another comment...but I can dig it. As I mentioned it that comment, my new uploads are less music happy. I just purchased a music subscription for creators right around the time of the release of this video, and I was definitely overly excited about it, as you can tell lol.

Well if you’re replacing 6 plugs…that means you have the 3.5L 6 cylinder. In this video the 4 cylinder is what is outlined. The 6 cylinder is definitely harder than this 4 cylinder with more involved, but it’s definitely doable.

Literally every tool is mentioned in the video, and every socket size etc is also noted in text throughout the video.
